Last Chance at the Shack

Well, the shack has to be off the ice by Thursday so we headed out yesterday for one last Saturday of fishing. The weather was warm but overcast and we got some freezing rain in the morning so we set up our lines to be visible from the front windows of the shack and stayed inside most of the day. Not much action and it sounded like others were having similar luck. Probably close to a dozen shacks came off the ice while we were out there.

We overheard the neighbours talking about a small private fishing derby down at the other end of the bay. The winner took home $125 with an 8" Perch and second place won $75 for a 7" Perch. At least we don't suck that bad ;-) Damn! Even our little Pike would have smoked them!

Even though we tried, all we caught were two medim/small Pike (not pictured)

...and a bit of shut-eye.


Why's Louis always giving me the finger?


Shelby had a good time as long as she didn't have to stay outside for too long.


Oooh... aaah... shiny...
